Apartheid simply means 'separateness'.
An Act was introduced in South Africa in 1948 that decreed that from then on, blacks would be 'separated' from whites. The Act, in fact, gave favour and supremacy to whites.
As a result, strict segregation orders were enforced; forbidding blacks access to the same rights, social and educational provision and public places as whites.
Many homes of blacks were confiscated and given to whites; blacks were forced to live in extremely poor conditions. They had no voice and if they did protest, they were dealt with very violently.
The white dominated 'Dutch Reformed Church' supported apartheid, arguing from the Bible that:
*South Africa's Apartheid laws were God's will.
*Races should be kept apart.
*Whites should have better opportunities as they heed God's 'favour'.
*Mixed marriages and relationships are discouraged so races remained 'pure'.
*God is the 'Great Divider'. Genesis 1 supports this, in that, God divides everything into separate categories - white is divided from black and meant to be separate.

Communism is haram

I would choose communism because racism is forbidden, no capitalist opressors, equality.

@Tapajara this written law gave a few hundred thousand colonialists over 90% of the land and left tens of millions of native Africans to fight over the less than 10%.

@blaqblood1111 I am not saying that it is the way things should be. But it was the way things were before colonialism brought rule of the written law to replace rule of the strongest. Sure, colonial law was primarily written by colonialists for colonialists but appartheid is over now. Haven't you been watching the news?

@Tapajara So your analysis is that if the murdered family had themselves killed to get their house they deserve the same! Okay! Then in this cycle these present murdering landgrabbers deserve the same also .. as you said one turn deserves another.. right!?

@blaqblood1111 How much did the children help in the murders? Now answer this question: Did the owner of the house who was murdered along with his family kill even its previous owner and his family even before he and his family were killed or did he purchase the house outright with his own hard work and honesty? I hope you realize that your very theoretical scenario leaves out so much information (after all, it is fictitious) that one could vote either way depending on a million other details.

@Tapajara Sir ..Imagine a man breaks into your house and kills all your family and moves in with his family. Do you think that his children who are living in this stolen house are just as guilty as the murdering thief who took it? What do you think?

@salahudeenabduladl Sir. You have a serious problem with your anger. You have focused your research to feed your hatred and that will do nothing but destroy you and those around you. I suggest that you seek God for your own well-being and realize that Jesus was right. The evil of the world is not caused by people of a certain skin color or origin. Good and bad people come in all races and from all nations.

@salahudeenabduladl I haven't denied a thing you've said. All the bad things you've listed are indeed bad and really happened. But you've put words into my mouth that were never there. I've always treated people of other races (including blacks and jews) with respect and have never done any of the horrible things you've described but somehow you want me to feel personal guilt for what I've never done? You have a really bad way of trying to promote support for your cause.

@Tapajara It seems that you are not ready to begin a much needed growth process that will enable you to comprehend the gravity and salience of what I have sincerely been sharing with you. Again, it seems futile to correspond with you further.
